The city of Boulder and the Boulder County Sheriff's Office announced today that Boulder Creek will be closed Tuesday to all swimming, tubing and kayaking while crews clear flood debris.

The closure will remain in effect until the restoration work on the creek is complete, according to a news release. The closure runs from Boulder Falls in the county to Boulder's eastern city limits at 75th Street and Jay Road.

During the closure, swimming, floating, tubing, canoeing and kayaking will not be allowed in the creek due to hazards posed by debris as well as construction equipment used in the reconstruction.

Boulder City Manager Jane Brautigam has issued an emergency rule that makes using the creek during a closure a municipal violation with a fine of up to $1,000 and up to 90 days in jail.

Boulder Fire Rescue will accept public comment on the emergency rule for 30 days before deciding whether to extend the rule. Comments may be made at 303-441-4178.
